Today's Walk Through the Tombstones is a re-visit to the Presbyterian Cemetery in Ellettsville, Monroe County, Indiana.
We originally visited this cemetery on February 1, 2015, but didn't get to stick around for very long as there were some very unwelcome people there that day in their large, loud pickup truck. We left and hadn't been back since then. We decided to stop on this day as we were finishing up a trip out to a renn faire with my daughter's friend and she was more than happy to do some cemetery hopping. You can check out my previous post here.
